Open Doors is next week – a chance to go behind the scenes of building sites across the UK and see how buildings are built.
It’s aimed at people interested in the building trade, as a career, or just curious about what goes on behind the wooden hoardings that hide the world of the building site.
There’s 34 sites left in London with places left to go on tours – ranging from Heathrow Airport, to hotels, office blocks and new residential towers.
The tours vary, but usually include an introduction to the project and some sort of tour of the site.
Tours need to be booked by this Monday, where still available.
The current list of sites in London is:

SUPPORT THIS WEBSITE
This website has been running now for over a decade, and while advertising revenue contributes to funding the website, it doesn't cover the costs. That is why I have set up a facility with DonorBox where you can contribute to the costs of the website and time invested in writing and research for the news articles.
It's very similar to the way The Guardian and many smaller websites are now seeking to generate an income in the face of rising costs and declining advertising.
Whether it's a one-off donation or a regular giver, every additional support goes a long way to covering the running costs of this website, and keeping you regularly topped up doses of Londony news and facts.
If you like what you read on here, then please support the website here.
Thank you
